An Epitaph upon — Enough: and leave the rest to Fame. ‘Tis to commend her but to name. Courtship, which living she declin’d, When dead to offer were unkind. Where never any could speak ill, Who would officious Praises spill? Nor can the truest Wit or Friend, Without Detracting, her commend. To say she liv’d a Virgin chast, In this Age loose and all unlac’t; Nor was, when Vice is so allow’d, Of Virtue or asham’d, or proud; That her Soul was on Heaven so bent No Minute but it came and went; That ready her last Debt to pay She summ’d her Life up ev’ry day; Modest as Morn; as Mid-day bright; Gentle as Ev’ning; cool as Night; ‘Tis true: but all so weakly said; ‘Twere more Significant, She’s Dead.
